Production

The story was written by the showrunner, Bob Camp together with Jim Gomez, and differed from the usual "gag reels" stories of the Games Animation studio.^[2] Camp and Gomez chose to focus on characters rather than gags in I Love Chicken with the main themes being Ren's selfishness and self-pity vs. Stimpy's devotion and low intelligence..^[2]
